Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

The Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated (PSEG) was held on April 18, 2017. Proxies for the meeting were solicited by PSEG pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Act of 1934. There was no solicitation of proxies in opposition to management’s nominees as listed in the proxy statement.

All of management’s nominees were elected to the Board of Directors.

The advisory vote on executive compensation was approved.

The stockholders have recommended in the advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation that such votes be held every year. Based on that result and consistent with its own recommendation, the Board of Directors has determined that PSEG’s stockholders will continue to be presented with the opportunity to cast an advisory vote on executive compensation at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held in each year beginning in 2018 and continuing through the earlier of 2023 or the next Annual Meeting at which an advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensation is presented to stockholders.

The appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as PSEG’s independent auditor was ratified.

Final results of the voting are provided below:
